εἶναι δὲ τὰ δένδρα ταύτῃ πήχεων καὶ τριάκοντα ἔστιν ἃ αὐτῶν, τυχεῖν τε ἀνθοῦντα ἐκείνῃ τῇ ὥρᾳ, καὶ τὸ ἄνθος εἶναι τῷ λευκῷ μάλιστα ἴῳ προσφερές, τὴν ὀδμὴν δὲ πολύ τι ὑπερφέρον. καὶ ἄλλον εἶναι καυλὸν ἐκ γῆς πεφυκότα ἀκάνθης, καὶ τούτῳ ἐπεῖναι ἰσχυρὰν τὴν ἄκανθαν, ὥστε ἤδη τινῶν καὶ παριππευόντων ἐμπλακεῖσαν τῇ ἐσθῆτι κατασπάσαι ἀπὸ τοῦ ἵππου μᾶλλόν τι τὸν ἱππέα ἢ αὐτὴν ἀποσχισθῆναι ἀπὸ τοῦ καυλοῦ.
